About The Owner

The property is owned by two families that have grown quite large over the generations. The Christmas Tree Inn has been a wonderful place for holidays and family gatherings over the years.

The Owner purchased this lodge in 1962
Why The Owner chose Stearns Pond

The property was purchased in 1962 by a brother and sister whose mother was sick. They wanted to have a place where both of their large families could gather with their mother. The property in Bridgton worked because of its proximity to a local hospital as well as to Portland ME. Since then it has been a gathering place for all of the children and their families for skiing, boating, shopping and celebrating. The Christmas Tree Inn has seen numerous wedding ceremonies and receptions, family reunions, birthday parties and annual gatherings of families and friends.

What makes this lodge unique

The Christmas Tree Inn is located in a wooded association perfect for the quiet morning walk or run. 5 Minutes to Shawnee Peak Ski Area, 1/2 hour to the outlets of North Conway, NH. 15 minutes from the Fryberg Fair in October, many restaurants in area, 5 minutes to golf at Bridgton Highlands Country Club.

Great facility, plenty of rooms and baths for a large group. The lake is beautiful and there is a place where you can rent a boat and they deliver it to the lake.

Large dining area overlooking the lake with a game area with card table. The kitchen is well furnished with plenty of refrigerator space for a large group. There is a great campfire area and horseshoe pit.

This is a great place!

Loved our winter vacation at the Christmas Tree Inn

We just returned from the Christmas Tree Inn. We packed the Inn to the brim and loved every minute of our time there. The Inn is so nostalgic and cozy. It's close to skiing, snow boarding and snow tubing. The kids loved walking on the ice out to the island and all the fun a snow storm can offer. There is plenty of room. We had over 30, mostly children, and we able to spread out and never felt as if we were on top of each other. It was fantastic! We can't wait to try it out in the summer!

WONDERFUL SUMMER VACATION!!

Great Property!! The Inn had everything we needed for our group of 25 (+) people. There was plenty of room for everyone to have their own private space, and the living areas were big enough for everyone to get together as a group. Not once did we feel cramped or feel like we needed more space for our group. Quite the opposite!
The outside space is fabulous!! We spent most of our time sitting out on the large deck overlooking the lake, while the kids played in the sand and swam out to the floating dock. It is perfect for dogs, too – more than enough room to run and play.
The fire pit was a great way to end the day. The spotlights were perfect at night, lighting up the fire pit and horseshoe area.
Our room was perfect, comfortable bed, private bathroom and a gorgeous view overlooking the lake. All of the rooms have private bathrooms, which is ideal when traveling with such a large group.
This was a perfect summer rental and it completely changed my views on traveling with a large group of people. We never felt cramped, or crowded, and we loved every minute of our stay, and I can only imagine how wonderful the Inn would be in the winter with the enormous stone fireplace to sit around after skiing. We will defiantly be return guests to your property, and will recommend the Christmas Tree Inn to anyone we know looking for a group rental! We can’t thank you enough! Highly recommend!

Wonderful Time!

Charming rustic adirondack Inn. Really family friendly, lots of room. You can either be together or retreat to your own room with a bathroom, awesome! Great stone fireplace, huge. Lots of interesting history mementos about the Inn and a big diningroom where the family can eat together. We stayed here for a week and had a wonderful time, great value when you divide the cost between mutiple families. Lots of hiking, great outlet shopping in no-tax New Hampshire and the lake is quiet, beautiful and really clean. We'll be back next year!
